Uday Kiran B - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers the capability to customize it the way I want, create my own CRM, and create a new closed integration with everything
The best thing is we can customize it. For example, there are some standard procedures in CRM, the opportunity that is standard. Other than that, we can create customized software on a business-to-business basis. So, if I don't want to follow any standard upgrade of CRM, I can customize it the way I want, create my own CRM, and create a new closed integration with everything. I can make my own CRM. The analytics in Oracle CX Sales are good. We can use ODA (Oracle Digital Assistant) to track data. There are some out-of-the-box reports for things like currency exchange data or product lists. These features are there by default. If you need to create new custom reports, it's possible to do so. They've been lagging behind the visual builder recently, but the product has improved.

It integrates well with our existing solutions, so we can analyze the data for analytics, forecasting and modeling
Setting up SAP CRM is straightforward. I rate it eight out of 10 for ease of setup. SAP provides all the tools and techniques were available from the vendor. However, the integration portion is a lot of work and requires some functional consultants. It takes some effort to customize the program and rewrite it to align with our business standards, but the initial implementation is straightforward. We didn't face any challenges here. Total deployment for this project took around eight or nine months, including development, testing, and validation. After deployment, the administration is fairly simple. We have to take care of the licensing part and forecast data growth for the next three or four months. We have the tools and people available for operations as well as vendor support. If we have complex issues, we can raise a ticket to the vendor and get it sorted.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"CX Sales is very intuitive - you just have to click a few buttons, and you see everything."
"Account management is a very good feature. It is conceptualized very well, and we can look at all the projects under one account. The data for those accounts remain there throughout."
"The solution integrates well."
"The integration with other systems is easy."
"The analytics features in Oracle CX Sales are good."
"It covers sales very well."
"the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful."
"The lead and opportunity management features are valuable."
"The solution is stable."
"SAP CRM is a scalable solution."
"The solution is easy to use."
"From the bank perspective, it's user-friendly and simple to develop something specific for a certain customer. It allows customization for individual customers rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach."
"The initial setup of SAP CRM was simple."
"I have found the sales reporting feature specifically useful as it provides reporting and visualization which helps in decision-making. I use this to understand where to improve, which in-turn, helps generate sales."
"I have found the most valuable feature of the SAP CRM system is its ability to integrate with other modules. SAP CRM is all about integrating with other modules. For example, SuccessFactors is their learning management. This is one use case that SAP CRM themselves use. Their lead generation versus their sales from their educational services. You can instantly receive insight into how many leads have been generated and how much it turned into real business or revenue for them. I was told in one of the seminars that the data transfer from the lead generation to sales is only 24 hours in SAP CRM."
"The user interface is excellent."
 

Cons

"They should have a mobile app because the sales folks travel a lot. Rather than logging into an application on the desktop, a mobile application update should be easier for them."
"You can get disconnected if you do not have a strong, reliable internet connection."
"They could provide more integrated AI features as part of the platform rather than as a separate offering."
"The tool must allow developers to check logs."
"It gives multiple entries for the same data because if you enter it once, it has to populate all other fields that are relevant."
"Improvements for Oracle CX Sales include enhancing the user interface (UI) to meet modern standards. Many clients prefer a more optimized UI over the classic one. The market is moving towards better UI and UX design coupled with functionalities. Oracle has a tool called VBCS that can help improve the UI. With VBCS, the look and feel of the application can be completely transformed. For example, Oracle CX Sales has been implemented for Ferrari, a top automotive industry player."
"CX Sales' stability isn't the best - it has a tendency to crap out and need refreshing, especially when creating quotes."
"The interface of Oracle CX Sales could be more user-friendly."
"SAP CRM could improve by being easier to use and customer-friendly."
"They have recently updated their user interface but they should continue to improve upon it in the future. Additionally, overall performance or speed of response times could be better."
"They could improve the product's analytics and reporting capabilities. Additionally, they could enhance its web interface speed."
"The product is very expensive."
"In the future, machine learning and artificial intelligence functionality need to be included."
"It was not very stable. It was not a network problem because we were using tools that were not SAP. They were working well. But when I'm running the SAP, it's not working for us."
"As SAP CRM is still in its pilot version in my company, and my team is still experimenting on it, there's little room for exploration, but its setup is not as straightforward, so this could be an area for improvement."
"SAP CRM should create a more user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI)."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is reasonably priced compared to other tools."
"The product pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."
"Pricing is based on licensing. They offer three different levels: basic, advanced, and enterprise. While I haven't checked the pricing recently, they often provide good discounts on the product."
"It's expensive, but worth the money."
"The product is pricey."
"It's more costly, and I would give it a two on a scale from one to five with one being expensive and five being competitive pricing."
"The price is reasonable."
"SAP CRM costs approximately a couple of thousand a month."
"Its price is reasonable. As compared to other CRMs, this CRM is competitively priced. They have multiple flavors with different sets of functionality. Pricing is based on the flavor that suits your requirement. If you have more users, the cost will come down."
"The solution is expensive."
"The licensing model for SAP CRM is customer-based."
"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
"The product is expensive."
"SAP CRM is an expensive product."
"SAP CRM offers a free trial for anyone wanting to test the product before purchasing it."
